the measurement of rts amounts measures a relationship between inputs and outputs in a production structure. there are many different ways to calculate rts in primal or dual space. but in more realistic cases, governments usually intervene on dmu’s behavior as regulatory agency, this clearly represent a set of limitations and restrictions on behaviors of dmus, so very few decisions in dmus are ...

results researchers have reported that mirnas can repress the expression of important cancer-related genes and might be helpful in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. during the past two decades, numerous studies have shown that mirnas play an essential role in inhibiting hcc via several different pathways. deregulated mirnas may contribute to carcinogenesis, indicating that mirnas can act a...

stem cell therapy could have great potential for the treatment of a wide variety of diseases. stem cells might have the ability to differentiate into a widespread cell types, and to repopulate and revitalize the damaged cells with healthy tissue, and improve its performance. we provide here the evidence supporting the critical use of stem cell as a treatment in disease conditions existing with ...

materials and methods: in order to achieve this, recombinant plasmid harboring antisense sequences targeting both of pta and acka was assembled, after transfecting to the cells, its effects on the cell growth and acetate accumulation in the minimal media was assessed and compared with the control, the plasmid without antisense cassette, in presence and absence of iptg in escherichia coli bl21 (...
